Rewards from Cai Lin

"Where is this?"

The Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python spoke in human language. As she spoke, a flash of light enveloped her entire body.

The moment the light appeared, Lei Qi felt a weight against him, along with something soft.

Looking at that flawless, bewitchingly beautiful face, Lei Qi replied, "On the way back to the Central Plains."

Remembering what Lei Qi had promised earlier, Medusa asked again, "My people?"

"I've already had my subordinates take them to relocate to Canaan Academy," Lei Qi said.

Medusa frowned slightly, clearly still uneasy.

"Until you follow me wholeheartedly, this is the only arrangement your Snake-People Clan can have," Lei Qi added.

"Are you threatening me?" The Queen's tone turned somewhat icy.

Lei Qi merely laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Medusa was displeased by Lei Qi's attitude.

"Do you really think that if I wanted something from you, I'd need to threaten you?" Lei Qi found it amusing.

No matter how extraordinary the Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python's talent was, she first had to live long enough to grow.

If she could not grow, what use was even the finest talent?

Hearing this, Medusa fell silent.

Because she could not deny that it was the truth.

With Lei Qi's status and the "power" behind him, if he wanted to do anything, she, the Queen of the desert, had no ability to resist at all.

Pride?

Within the Jia Ma Empire's little patch of land, perhaps she could make others fear and dread her. But once she left the Jia Ma Empire for broader lands, she truly amounted to nothing.

As though she had figured everything out, the Queen lowered her proud head.

"I-I will keep my promise. P-please treat the Snake-People Clan well." Medusa no longer carried her usual domineering air, instead seeming more like a meek young wife.

"I-you're hurting me..."

(ˇˇ.)

Smile for me~

Although Medusa had yet to fully control her own strength, she had already advanced to the Dou Zong realm. Those beautiful legs were the best proof of it.

Still, if she truly did not want to, she could have sent Lei Qi flying with a single palm strike.

But her evolution, as well as her swift awakening, had all been made possible by Lei Qi's support.

Just as he had said, with her strength, calling it a threat was simply out of the question.

It was merely that Medusa had not expected that beneath Lei Qi's steel-like body, she would hurt so badly.

·()

Unfortunately, faced with her seductive and enchanting aura, Lei Qi simply could not hold back!

He wanted to be gentler too.

But the more he wanted to be gentle, the more he wanted to bully her.

Perhaps that feeling of conquest was a common affliction.

That night.

Taming a wild mare was naturally not something that could be done overnight.

"From now on, I'll call you Cai Lin," Lei Qi said as he looked at the soft and alluring Queen.

Medusa was not her name, and he could not keep calling her Queen all the time. It would affect his standing in the household.

As for coming up with a name?

Why rack his brain when he could get one for free?

Hearing this, the Queen softly murmured, "Cai Lin." She seemed quite satisfied with it, then slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.

She had refused to yield in her dispute with Lei Qi.

Lei Qi clearly had not yet made her choose to remain devoted to him alone.

[ Ding. Congratulations, Host, for obtaining one hundred seventh-tier medicinal pills of every grade. ]

Lei Qi was stunned when he saw this reward.

As expected of one of this world's main characters. This reward was even more generous than Yun Yun's first time.

Seventh-tier medicinal pills might only be one grade higher, but even for him and Medusa, they were extremely abundant resources.

With such an incredible system, combined with some of his own "advantages," even if he wanted to lie flat, he simply could not!

"Crackle, crackle."

"Crackle, crackle."

But suddenly, the mutated Black Demon Lightning around him began to stir once more.

Seeing this, Lei Qi hurriedly rolled out of bed.

He did not want to hurt Cai Lin. Especially after they had just had a dispute, harming her now was something Lei Qi could not accept. Yet what left Lei Qi dumbfounded was that Cai Lin actually absorbed the Black Demon Lightning!

Moreover, she directly transformed back into her true form. She seemed to thoroughly enjoy absorbing the Black Demon Lightning, even rolling over in comfort. That little appearance of hers was utterly adorable.

"This..."

The Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python's soul had already been completely devoured by Cai Lin, so it was not the little snake displaying such behavior, but her.

For the cold Medusa Queen to act like this, one could imagine just how comfortable it truly was!

Lei Qi immediately held her in his hands. After the originally violent Black Demon Lightning continuously invaded her body, it actually became much more docile!?

"What did you just do to m-me?" Once the Black Demon Lightning dissipated, Cai Lin woke up.

"I fed you some nourishment," Lei Qi said.

Upon hearing that, Cai Lin wore an expression of embarrassed fury. Clearly, she thought he meant the "nourishment" he had forcibly fed her earlier!

"What are you thinking??"

Seeing the look in her eyes, Lei Qi felt wronged. He then added, "Didn't you feel anything?"

Medusa wanted to say: It hurt!!

But she discovered that the pain she had initially felt had already faded, and the power within her body had become much more abundant as well?

She had thought it would take another three to five months to completely control this body, but now she had a feeling that two or three months would be enough!

The Queen immediately transformed into human form.

Seeing this, Lei Qi took out a set of red robes and a pair of red shoes, clearly having prepared them long ago.

After all, who could withstand this trial from Cai Lin?

Cai Lin did not waste words. She accepted them. She still had some idea of her own condition.

Rustle, rustle.

"What just happened?"

(.)

Seeing her eager, inquisitive expression, Lei Qi did not hide anything and told her about how his lightning power had erupted earlier before she absorbed it.

Although Cai Lin was somewhat surprised, she clearly believed what Lei Qi said.

"Why can I absorb the power of your lightning?" Believing him was one thing, but she was still deeply puzzled.

The Seven-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python was a fire-attributed magical beast, not a lightning-attributed magical beast.

"I... don't know either." Lei Qi shook his head.

He had thought he understood everything about this world, but now it seemed that his understanding of it was still rather shallow.

Just like what had happened now, as well as what had happened in the Thunder Clan's ancestral land—he had never heard of such things. After all, although Lei Dong had possessed Black Demon Lightning when he appeared in the Ancient Clan, it had only been ordinary Black Demon Lightning.

"Fine." Seeing that Lei Qi was equally confused, Cai Lin could not be bothered to ask further. After all, it benefited her and caused no harm. That was enough.

"Hey, no, stop."
